I’m not sure we’re going to have to trade up to get Grant to be honest

That’s a really good deal for the Bills. Way under what he would have gotten on the market

Stock is rising pretty heavy. Don’t know if he makes it to 109 might be a candidate at 62 or trade down scenario in round 3

I actually agree he’s a better WR than DB. He’s improved quite a bit no doubt but early on in his career he would be getting burned by HBCU WRs at times and still occasionally at Colorado. No one shut him down as a WR Mukuba is my favorite Horns prospect by a lot

I think your scenario # 2 is more spot on. I think they stick at 30 , stick at 56 unless there is a player they really want to trade up for and move down from 62 into the 3rd and then start using those back end picks if they so desire to move around

Well besides the fact that the Bills don’t have a 7th. Taking a guy who provides literally zero pass rush, zero lateral agility and would have to be stashed for multiple years to lose weight doesn’t sound appealing to me

Jasper while not making it to the NFL has made a nice career for himself in the coaching ranks. Very successful at his Alma mater in Bethel College and just took the HC job at Stetson which is FCS football(sort of)

He’s a terrible football player. Would be a waste of a pick

I know this is you just responding. A lot of people thought we weren’t going to keep the vast majority of our picks last year and if we did they wouldn’t make the team. This was echoed by a lot of posters last year and we drafted 10 guys and all 10 guys are still in Buffalo in some capacity. Everyone thinks that we are not going to do it again, and maybe we don’t take 10 but it wouldn’t surprise me if we keep 8-9 players again. With the tight salary cap, aging roster, and our ability to develop late round talent into at least depth players I see us continuing to get younger and cheaper especially with the ability to get out of a bunch of high level contracts in 2026

I had him in my last mock to the Bills. He’ll go round two or early round 3 in my opinion and wouldn’t surprise me if he goes earlier than expected in the 40s He has everything you look for in a pass rusher but he is one year wonder. He’s got perfect size wing span and athletic traits. He’s a one year wonder and you do have to question why it took him so long to find success. Can he replicate it in the NFL or not is the question

Production was poor in part because he was injured both seasons he was a full time player. Had 22 yards a catch and 570 yards in 7 games. He was on pace for over 1,000 yards his sophomore season before declaring for the draft. Thornton played in 47 games between Oregon and Tennessee including 3 full season and his best season was 80 yards better than Metcalf. Im not poo pooing on Thornton but there has to be some context between the two in comparison

Cramp

He’s fine, it’s already been reported

Bond, Ayomanor, Noel, Royals, Harris

I think the Bills range will be right around where Bond goes. I disagree on the WR thing. I think there is going to be some guys there and they might pull the trigger in round 2 but I think I’d still rather see DT, CB, DE with the first 3 picks then pivot and take WR at 109 or 132 because I think the strength of the WR class is in that range more so than round 2

Apparently Tyleik Williams is fine. He had a scare but came back out to watch He’s a good but overrated prospect to begin with and this doesn’t help

Update: Apparently he’s okay

I’ve been saying that 3rd TE is a need for awhile not just because of Morris but because Knox is so expensive and we can move on there next year if we wanted to. Hutchmaker has played a lot of football for Nebraska. Pure 1 tech and did a lot of the dirty work for that Nebraska team. Might be pretty maxed out when it comes to upside but could be a solid backup 1 tech in the NFL. A late round guy but maybe one who could surprise

I really liked the Hoecht signing and was a fan of the Palmer signing. It’s roughly really 11 AAV which is about the going rate for a # 3 WR in the NFL. I think they’re hoping for a guy who can provide good run blocking and a guy who can beat press. Think he’ll play both Z and X so I agree that they see him as a combo of Hollins, Cooper. Their going to add a speed guy at some point in the draft to fill out the room

I think on the other hand this shows just how much McDermott and staff extract from their guys. Only Hollins has been signed from our class of free agents.

I think it’s less likely now especially if the Giants pass on a QB which is more likely now but if the Giants still take Sansers, I wonder if the Patriots would consider the possibility of taking Jeanty. Everyone seems locked in on OT or the other two in Carter/Hunter

Beane wouldn’t do this trade just knowing the GMs tendencies. He wouldn’t go almost a full 3rounds without a pick we all know that since the Bills wouldn’t pick until the 5th round comp picks. He def wouldn’t do it for Thomas who will very likely be there at 30 and possibly in the 40s. I get the Bills-Vikes trade partner thing makes sense but the Vikings need more picks and the Bills aren’t the only team with em. I think Beane sticks to 30 this year unless someone drastic drops

I don’t think they go WR at 30 and I believe that the strength of this WR class is in the 3rd to 5th round. Lots of different body types with upside. I personally like Tai Felton but I believe that there are a lot of guys that with the right development could be solid contributors down the road

Yup just posting on what I saw
